By now, we've all seen the embarrassing video of the lady who falls into the mall water fountain because she's too busy typing on her phone to notice the gigantic water feature. If not...enjoy. The self-explanatory Text and Walk app for iPhone simply uses the rear camera's video as a background while you send messages.

In other words, you can "see through the screen" to get a better idea of what's in your path while sending a message. The app works for sms messages and you can also connect the app to your Twitter and Facebook accounts to send Tweets or update your status, all while avoiding walking into signs, walls, or worse.

Additional features include:

- Customize messages with colors and fonts

- Night vision feature for typing in low light situations

- Import and Sync phone contacts for quick access in-app

The app is free in the App Store, so if that message is SO IMPORTANT that you can't stop moving while typing, maybe you need an app like Text and Walk.
